The Audubon neighborhood is a charming older neighborhood in the middle of Wilmington. Most homes were built in the 1920s - 1950s. Many are bungalow style, simple, well built.
The neighborhood was actually launched in 1911, and there is still a trolly station standing, a concrete structure that has the distinction of being North Carolina's smallest structure in the National Historic Registry.

Negatives: historic homes require maintenance, and many of the homes were built before the era of large closets and bathrooms. Affected by Wrightsville and Oleander traffic.
